After months of terrorizing the world, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF Trump’s tariffs just got BLOCKED by a federal trade court. Bad news for him, great news for everyone else. SMITE!

25-year-old activist Deja Foxx has mere months to win a competitive primary in a special election in Arizona to replace late representative Raúl Grijalva — and to set the tone for the next generation of women in politics. ⤵️

Important compilation & analysis from @vermontgmg.bsky.social "This is textbook authoritarianism, a classic example of what one-time Peru president General Óscar Benavides captured in his adage: 'For my friends, everything; for my enemies, the law.'" #RuleOfLaw

NPR and three Colorado public radio stations filed suit Tuesday morning in federal court against the Trump White House over the president's executive order purportedly barring the use of Congressionally appropriated funds for NPR and PBS. www.npr.org/2025/05/27/n...

That many threats suggests a campaign. Will the Marshals Service be allowed to investigate orchestration of a campaign of threats? Conspiracy, RICO, aiding and abetting — plenty of angles if they’re allowed to look.

What people don't seem to understand is that even if *they* are not using Medicaid, a large share of their providers' patient population does. That means that their healthcare providers may be unable to stay solvent and in practice when Medicaid is cut. We all lose when Medicaid is cut.

A pair of Senate Democrats are urging Secretary of State Marco Rubio to secure the release of journalists detained while reporting overseas on behalf of taxpayer-funded media outlets like Voice of America. thehill.com/homenews/532...

Word has it that the Senate doesn't like the cuts to SNAP. But there is no mention of its disapproval of Medicaid cuts; No disapproval on dismantling of judiciary enforcement; No disapproval on the taxes on the poor...this is a distraction from the other horrible line items they really want to pass.

When will everyone learn that cozying up to Trump accomplishes nothing, except him releasing vile criminals who sought to murder you and your family out on the streets www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Not sleeping well, turns out fascism doesn't agree with me

Much of the Trump news coverage over the past 4+ months has been very good but there's still some aggressive sanewashing like here from the @nytimes.com ⤵️ My latest on the Times' misfire AND the outlets that got the West Point story right. open.substack.com/pub/jennifer...

RIP the iconic Maya Angelou, died this day 2014. “Courage is the most important of all the virtues because without courage, you can't practice any other virtue consistently.” “Have enough courage to trust love one more time and always one more time.”

Destroyed by lies and DOGE…

Genuinely glad Russell Vought’s daughter got the NIH-backed medicine she needed. ❤️‍🩹 Now he’s trying to defund the very programs that made it possible—for everyone else. 🙃💉 Life-saving science for me, austerity for thee. Cool plan, Volde-Vought.

Humphrey’s Executor– a Supreme Court case which prevents presidents from arbitrarily firing certain federal agency leaders without cause – is the key case that stands in the way of Trump’s goal to dismantle government agencies, at least for now. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/tru...

Given the disgraceful treatment of South African President Cyril Ramaphosa by President Trump in the WH, it is only appropriate that we take 3 mins to listen to an excerpt of Pres Ramaphosa’s recent remarks to his Natl Assembly explaining the country’s Black Economic Empowerment Program. Brilliant.

Heavy sigh.

Pure ignorance elected pure hatred.

Thanks to DOGE, VA Secretary Doug Collins is planning to fire 83,000 VA workers. America’s heroes deserve better than to have their essential services cut and delayed by an unaccountable billionaire.

Marco Rubio and the State Department have halted the scheduling of new visa interviews for foreign students hoping to study in the US while it prepares to expand the screening of their activity on social media. apnews.com/article/stud...

Democrats would be wise to capitalize on the possible coming cuts to Medicare and Medicare. The Republicans aren't fooling anyone here.

We need a law mandating ICE officers wear a standardized uniform, visible badge numbers and a mask warrant to require officers to prove in court that there is enough danger to justify wearing a mask.

People still just don't get it. "Richard said his wife’s apprehension makes no sense because she was not a flight risk wearing an ankle monitor, has ties to the community and has continued her appeal for asylum status."

Donald Trump came into office promising to lower costs for families. Instead, Republicans are about to jack up the cost of health care for hundreds of thousands of Wisconsinites, all so the wealthiest Americans can get richer.

Insanity:

A man armed with a semi-automatic pistol shot and wounded five people inside a shopping center in Waterbury, Connecticut. Authorities say the shooting stemmed from a dispute and escalated into gunfire. When guns are everywhere, disagreements can quickly become deadly.
